Those are some crazy looking robots at the end. Awesome. I loved the first Bayformers movie and loathed the second. Hopefully this evokes the former more than the latter. Teaser looks good though.

It's crap like this that keeps science fiction from being taken seriously. Giant fighting robots from outer space that can turn into cars etc. For those under the mentral age of ten.

Steven - a direct blanket insult to science fiction and comic fandom if there ever was one. Please keep those sort of opinions to yourself - and please, if you have to air your views - learn to spell.

It's just Michael Bay playing Forrest Gump with giant robots again.

But upon reflection, this has the potential to be really awesome if Bay pokes fun at moon-landing conspiracy nuts the way he did at used car salesmen, federal agents, and alien invasion conspiracy nuts in previous movies. I'd pay money to see that. Though, in fact, I'll pay money to see it anyway…big dumb fun doesn't get any bigger or dumber than this.

And I'd vote the movie an Oscar if it included a cameo from the real Buzz Aldrin and had him punch someone.

It's so cute that they make it seem like there will be a plot in this movie.

Robots in space seems like a good description of this to me. My biggest beef with the first movie was we really didn't get to know Prime and the Autobots very much at all. They had no characterization. Could've been any random robots.

J. Juta-I can spell just fine. It was a typo. I find movies like The Transformers series insulting to people who are looking for something other than ridiculous storylines. As long as crap like this does well at the boxoffice the harder it will be for filmmakers to make science fiction films with intelligent storylines.

Actually, on thinking about it, I think you're incorrect, Steven... 1. From the stories Hollywood people tell about themselves, Hollywood is a bunch of fools in a washing machine trying to grab on to something dry. So a movie about penguins does well and suddenly there are three movies about penguins. Doesn't matter if the first movie was the penguin version of "The Cove" and the others are penguin Star Wars and penguin Lion King. So, any sci fi means that People who Matter think Sci Fi is Viable /let's get on that! wait I just got a script called The Cold Equations! film that!/.

2. It's useful to keep effects shops in the money so they're ready and skilled when other sci fi you like better comes down the pike.

Whenever I see comments like Steven's, I think back to Christopher Morley's books Parnassus on Wheels and The Haunted Bookshop, in which a mild-mannered bookseller from around the turn of the 20th century decried the sale of penny dreadfuls and pulps such as Edgar Rice Burroughs titles. These works were going to lead to mass cultural illiteracy and the complete downfall of society, he just knew it.

Really, the thing people who don't like them hate the most about Michael Bay's movies is how doggone popular they are. Those who consider him a no-talent hack and are floored that he keeps getting more work fail to bear in mind that he wouldn't get that much work if his movies didn't make more money than the studios can cart away in a dumptruck.

So if you want to complain about badly-written, highly-pyrotechnic action skiffy, you might want to turn around 180 degrees to face the actual responsible party before you start your scolding. They wouldn't keep making these movies if people didn't keep watching them.

(Believe me, I sympathize. I feel exactly the same way about Adam Sandler or Rob Lowe comedies. But I can't really blame Sandler or Lowe for their popularity.)

The main thin I dislike about the movies is the way the robots changes shape - no cleverly moving parts that become something elese - they seem to morph, and its all done so quickly that I honestly have sore eyes after watching them. But enough of sounding like an old man - Ill still go and see it. Is the delightful Megan Fox planning to be sweaty in it at any point?

@Not So Dark

Megan Fox will not be in this one.
